We Traded Our Supplements for This Drink Powder and Never Looked Back

The Lineup is a monthly series where we’re giving you an inside peek at the beauty lineups of cool fashion people, editors, makeup artists, hairstylists, and estheticians—all the people we trust the most. Get ready for a behind-the-scenes look at all the can’t-live-without products that make their worlds go 'round.

It’s the new year, so goal-setting and resolutions are on my mind. One goal that I think we should all set is to prioritize self-care, and after chatting with Emma Heming Willis and Helen Christoni, the co-founders of Make Time Wellness, I’m more inspired than ever to do just that.

For Heming Willis, it all started when she began experiencing brain fog after becoming a mom. She sought help from a doctor, made the recommended lifestyle changes to optimize her brain health, and even started a complicated supplement regimen—which she quickly realized wasn’t sustainable. “I couldn’t find an all-in-one solution for women that would take care of their brain, body, and beauty. Everything was a pill or too complicated,” she says. “I said to my co-founder, Helen, that I wished I could take all these supplements and turn them into a drink, and that’s how Make Time Wellness was born.”

Make Time Wellness's delicious fruit-flavored drink powders and gummies are made with natural ingredients to support your overall wellness and beauty and boost your mood, focus, energy, and clarity. Plus, a portion of the proceeds from each purchase is donated to Hilarity for Charity, an organization that leads brain health research and education.

So how do these two multi-hyphenates make time for themselves while leading such busy lives? “I’m a career girl, so I fall into working constantly," Christoni says. “However, it’s hard to be creative and effective if you don’t give yourself the time to recharge your batteries.” Amen. Heming Willis also has a tip: “I’ve turned the term ‘self-care’ into the question, ‘What will I make time for today?’ I schedule something in my calendar where I can unplug and do something for myself.” Curious about what products they reach for in their routines? Keep reading to see their wellness and beauty must-haves, including Heming Willis’s favorite coconut body cream and the famed moisturizer Christoni has been using for 20 years.

“This serum is forever my favorite. It soaks in so nicely, hydrates, and plumps the skin, especially around those fine lines.”
“I use this once a week as the first step in my at-home facial. This gently exfoliates due to its enzymes, which leaves my skin ready to fully absorb the next facial mask. I could stop right there after using this peel as my skin’s already glowing after using it, but I like to go the extra mile.”
“I’ve been using Merit for a while but only recently discovered their mascara. I’m not a big mascara fan as most of them make me look like I’m wearing it. This one adds a little thickness and a little something to elevate a no-makeup look.”
“I have this in two shades. One I use as concealer and the other as a foundation. As I mentioned, I prefer a little touch when it comes to makeup, and this foundation does just that. It can be buildable if I need more coverage, but usually, I’ll only use it on the areas that might need it. Plus, it’s creamy, not drying, and feels really nice on the skin. I love that you can still see my skin underneath it.”
“Once I discovered this, I never looked back. It purifies, cleanses, hydrates, and calms the skin. It just does so much more than any other on the market. Plus, I love their refill system.”
“Now I understand what all the hype is about. This is a great lip mask that worked for me on the first night I used it. It’s not sticky but is so hydrating and soothing. A little goes such a long way, so that little jar will last.”
“Sleep is a major player for me when it comes to taking care of my brain health. I love things on my bedside to help promote a good night’s rest. This pillow spray has a mix of lavender, chamomile, and vetiver that is so calming and smells like you're sleeping in a spa. It’s the first step in my bedtime routine.”
“I love layering this cream and the Cocobaba Coconut Body Oil on my feet, elbows, and hands before I go to sleep. I keep it right on my bedside table to remind myself to use it. It’s so hydrating, soaks in so nicely, and smells beautiful. I’ve noticed such a difference in these areas of my body that tend to run on the drier side, especially my cuticles, since doing this every night.”
“I love this delicious, easy-to-take supplement drink. I either put a scoop on ice with some water or in my smoothie. I can check all the boxes here as it supports my brain, body, and beauty.”
“This is my daily face moisturizer. It leaves my skin hydrated, happy, and not too oily. I’ve been using it for years and always go back to it.”
“This is a delicious gummy that contains rhodiola, which lowers cortisol and improves performance. I don’t leave home without it. It’s a must-have to start my day!”
“This is my nightly serum. I love that it’s natural, and I feel like it puts the nutrients back in my skin that the day has stripped. I’ve been using it for some time now, and it really delivers on supporting your skin barrier.”
“This is my morning eye cream. It’s great if you want a little glow and don’t want to wear makeup. It has a little highlight in it and does exactly what it says.”
“I’ve been using this for 20 years. If I had to pick one skincare product, this would be it. My skin loves it. Tip: You need to emulsify this product by rubbing it in your hands before applying it. It doesn’t go on thick when you do this.”
“This is another nonnegotiable in my daily routine. This gives my skin such a natural, sun-kissed glow. I always get compliments when I use this. It’s a vacation flush in a bottle. Trust me—run, don’t walk for this.”
“I love this K-Beauty toner. I don’t wash my face in the morning and use this instead. It’s really gentle and preps my skin for the day.”
“I bought this off Instagram, and it’s truly the best lipstick I have ever used in my life. It’s moisturizing, matte, pigmented, and juicy all at the same time. The color lasts all day, and when it fades, it doesn’t peel or flake. It’s just the perfect lipstick, and this color is a day-to-night red. Love!”
“I use this every single morning, and it leaves my skin so glowy, even if I don’t use makeup.”
“This was a gift that I fell in love with. It’s truly the most comforting, creamy eye cream I’ve ever used. I use it every single night without fail.”
“Hot tip: I put this on my hands as part of my daily routine, and it has literally taken a decade off. It’s my secret to youthful hands and is also great if you need to treat stretch marks or cellulite.”
